What This Means For Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning
How The ScreenX Format Will Affect The Tom Cruise Film
ScreenX is a relatively new innovation in the world of movies, with the format offering viewers a panoramic experience.The format features dual screens that are projected onto the walls on either side of the main theater screen, allowing for a 270-degree view of the action. Though these additional screens aren’t always active at all times during a film, they typically kick in for select sequences, with the idea being that they create an enhanced sense of immersion for viewers, who are literally surrounded by the movie.
As has been teased in trailers,The Final Reckoningwill have a number of sequences that could benefit from this format.One of theMission: Impossiblemovie’s biggest stunts, for example, will feature Cruise holding onto the side of a biplane. For this sequence, the ScreenX format could include an expanded panoramic view of the sky. Other notable action sequences that are sure to be affected by this format include an underwater set piece involving the Sevastopol submarine, a car chase, and, of course, Cruise’s sprinting in London.

A Premium Format Will Be The Best Way To Watch The Final Reckoning
A movie likeThe Final Reckoningis sure to benefit greatly from premium formatslike ScreenX and IMAX. McQuarrie and Cruise, after all, film with these formats in mind. After theacclaimedMission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning(2023) took great advantage of the benefits of ScreenX and IMAX with its action set pieces, the upcoming film is sure to do the same.
Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoningenjoys scores of 96% and 94% from critics and audiences, respectively, onRotten Tomatoes.
IfThe Final Reckoningis indeed the lastMission: Impossiblemovie, this could be the last time to experience an Ethan Hunt adventure in a premium format, barring any future re-releases. The stunts are sure to be mind-blowing no matter what format audiences choose, butScreenX and IMAX could certainly enhance the experience for those looking to take their theater-viewing to the next level. It remains unclear whetherMission: Impossible – The Final Reckoningwill be the last one, but Cruise’s next outing as Hunt is evidently going a big one.
